Nokia G20 Review: 6 Months Later... 

Perfect review for this phone. I bought it while my previous phone was being repaired. I think if we step back and think about what budget phones like this can do we should be amazed.

I use this as a holiday phone, amazing battery, all friends are running out of juice and i'm hot spotting internet, finding our way around and still have 30% batttery when we get home at the end of the day. It's a perfect phone for a task, not ideal for content creation as too slow.

Hey thanks for the review! Glad to hear from someone who understands who this phone is meant for.

The Nokia G50 is a much better value with 5G, a Qualcomm chipset, and it's barely more expensive. Still quite impressive that the G20 will get Android 12 and 13. Content consumption should be just fine with this.

I am very near to clock 1 year with this phone. And without any kind of doubts I can say that this phone is the best of its class. That was a great and positive review . Well-done 🤞

This phone is 80 dollars with free wireless headphones here in Ireland. Thats a hell of a deal!

Finally a good review for this phone. Please would you mind doing a review after the OS update to android 12 or 13.

I like the way you review it and telling all the true stuff to people.I own a iphone 13 pro but need a side phone for just watching video and for slack office messaging hence planning to buy this phone because i know Nokia phones used to be Solid heavy duty phones in old days and hoping this new Nokia phone will live upto that expectations of mine.

Hi Adam. First time here on your channel. As a long time Nokia fan and user, I appreciate that you're highlighting this phone for what it is. India has one of the most competitive smartphone markets out there and it's sad to see Nokia unable to gain traction here. PS You should also mention if we are able to watch content on OTT platforms in HD or Full HD. It's a very important feature.

Make a video on it’s best camera settings

Hey Adam, nice video. So I need your/others advice too. Basicly I am on a budget and I want a phone, I'm not a hardcore gamer so I will barely use it for games, all the other aspects seem OK with me, the main thing that makes me want to buy G20 is battery. So would you recommend this phone for someone who's budget is like MAX 200$, if not what's alternatives? -Thanks

Great review Adam

I have this phone for just about half a year and it's painfully slow, apps are freezing and crushing. . . I am not sure if it's the phone's fault or if it's not properly optimised, but recently even system UI started crushing and in my experience, and the last phone I had that did that didn't last for very long. Even the camera isn't all that great not because of the quality of the pictures, but because the focus is horrible and there is often a long delay between pressing the button and the picture being taken. This was a disappointment, because a decent camera of a deciding factor for purchase. I miss my Samsung Galaxy A20, which I lost in the bus. It was cheaper, but seemed to perform reliably better despite having lower parameters.

I am between nokia g20 and the xiaomi redmi 10. Which one should i get

Thx for the vid! Was looking for a review. Really trying to get a good android thats little more towards gaming and normal use, but budget around 200. Any tips?

Nokia Phones are fine except updates. Monthly security ipdate are often latte. For example my phone, 5.3 is running on March Update but we have now latte May.

I’m moving back to Mexico and needed a phone that’s functional and that I won’t get too upset about if it gets robbed. Just picked this up for $150 on sale. It doesn’t compare with my iPhone, but I didn’t expect it to. I think this is all most non-gamers really need.

Si lo quiero principalmente para ver series o películas en RU-vid, me servirá? Por favor

sangat puas dari awal beli sampai skrg sdh update android 13 di Nokia G20

Hi, thanks for a good explanation of this phone :) Great help :)

It's a phone I would purchase for a parent or elderly that don't really need a phone for more than just call / text and light social media scrolling. I had to use this phone for a week while I waited for an s20 to arrive and I wanted to test it see how it would perform for my work environment. Processing power meant it struggles jumping between apps, the side finger print is a pain and the camera resolution looks terrible although the photos look OK once you view them elsewhere as you discussed. I purchased 120 of these handsets to use in a work project and for the price its a good buy as we won't use them for anything too demanding however if you are someone that does use the phone a lot for more than just calls / texting I would look at spending a little more.

I bought one today $145 at best buy. I got it because I needed an unlocked android phone with GPS to use the GPS receiver with my Icom amateur radio that doesn't have GPS built in. the only app that does this was through android platform. I'm an iphone user so I didn't need the g20 activated, just needed the GPS and android apps. This device is extremely slow to download a small and simple app and the charging takes forever compared to iphone. start up time is slow also. iphone is awake as soon as I pick it up.

My Nokia G20 turns always on whenever I put it in the bag. Then, while talking to sb the loudspeaker turns on and if I siwtch it off, it will switch on again. The same with the flashlight - it switches on randomly during a phone call. Then the side swipe is difficult to operate when using google to return to the previous site - I have to swipe a few time with dubious success. The sound of the calls is to low - I have to strain my ears. ... HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THAT? WHAT DID YOU DO ABOUT THE PHONE THEN?

Just upgraded to this phone since my Nokia 7.2 was not 4G compatible. It has Android 11 and I, as a 67 yo gmom am having trouble navigating this OS. Can someone point me to a video that will teach me how to use Android 11, please and TIA!

My camera quality is too sharp and I don't like it like that what the problem

yep i had the old nokia- then I got a nokia 7 plus. which still stands up to day. But I do like the wide angle camera of my other phone. I can get this free on upgrade. hmmm. I don't play games.

This phone isn't good front camera decided not to work have done all the tricks but to no avail. Downloaded other apps too still not working

I have this phone

Basically, if your first mobile phone didn't have a readout made of red LED 7 segment display and was the size of a big brick or concrete block, you ain't got no **** business making any videos about cell phones. You hear me Marques Brownlee. early adopters were using mobile phones before you ever crapped a diaper, so your parents buying you a cell phone as a kid in a Radio Shack family plan does not make you any kind of expert... lol

Very good phone

I JUST BOUGHT A NEW ONE!

we purchesed this mobile and used but totaly thirdclass mobile

Can you hot spot with it and games good

I love mine!

Worst smart phone only decided to try because of nostalgia ...G20 is garbage going back to good ole faithful Motorala. G20 should be recalled!

its too overpriced for what it offer

Nokia or Motorola...

Can anyone tell me how to get roaming on this piece of crap. I have reset, tried to contact support and no response... This piece of junk is for the bin if it's lucky... . Back to Samsung for me ... Only 100€ loss but lesson learned.... Never again Nokia...
